There's an almost unbroken series of Summer Shows stretching way back into the past.
Held in the first week in July, the event sees Bidbury Mead overtaken by a mass of stalls, some special events and a seething throng of people enjoying weather which is generally far better than our greatest dreams.
As well as photos from 2011, we have a video from 2010, photos from 2006 and further back!
The Summer Show is very special - a chance for Church and Community to link hands and work together raising funds for charitable causes on the way.
There's a great show lined up for you...
Featuring the Solent Dog Display Team, Dance Troupe Aziza and the Portsmouth City Band.
There are dozens of sideshows and stalls.
The theme is the Diamond Jubilee, and there is a prize for the best adult fancy dress, plus fancy dress for children and novelty races too,
